Eric--There still is a considerable amount of manufacturing in Carson, but no new space is being built for manufacturing facilities. The newer logistics friendly buildings have 40 foot ceiling, large loading docks and are designed to accomodate the fast trafficing of merchandise from the docks to the consumer. It is interesting that Athearn chose a site that is logistics friendly where virtually no manufacturing is going on. Had they been interested in manufacturing, they could have leased space in an older building that is not logistics friendly at a much lower rental rate. <br /> <br />I haven't seen many SP locos at Delores or anywhere as UP has pretty much repainted all of them. I drive by Taylor Yard on the way home. From a distance I see a number of gray locomotives that look like they are getting ready to be repainted.
